What is a good offset to run then?

I have that problem with my Honda hx wheels. They're 14" with a +45 offset. According to Charlie I would need more like +20 to run a good 3.5° so that's basically a 1" spacer on each side....not too fond of the idea.

Does the +45 offset fit without a spacer with no camber? I just put a +35 14x6's on my little brothers car and they were really close in the back so I added a 5mm spacer just to be safe.

Yeah but with the 185/60 tire I get rub at full lock. 165's should be fine.

Lucky for you its easy peasy to figure out. You left out info like your tire size, rim width, what hubs your using and so on, so to figure it out youself you just take the measurement from the hub centre to whatever point will want to hit the strut first at -3.5 degrees. Then you already know that 0 degrees is the most camber you can get with these rims and you want -3.5 so you just figure out how far in 3.5 degrees will move it. Then subtract that from the offset your current rims are and thats the offset you can go with. You can of course go with rims that stick out farther in case you ever do bigger tires or want more camber. I hear -5 is the new -3.5 in the festiva racing world.

If i were home right now i would know all that. However im not at the house. I will be measuring tonight to find out what size spacer i need. Thats the easy part. I just dont have the means to do so at the minute.

My jug is full of meth. Time to install the trunk mount kit. I also need to turn up the fuel psi. Im hoping to have the car running strong this weekend. I will be working on the front tonight.
